Of course, the reason Vinson did that was to make a deterrence. After this, no one would ever dare to stop Arielle in virtual-novel.net tracks again.
As for the people present around the front desk, they were all stunned as they watched both of them get into the elevator. They were even more shocked to see the receptionist getting fired on the spot.
Well, it seems like we have to address the ambassador of Soir Coffee as Mrs. Nightshire from now on.
Meanwhile, in the elevator, Vinson pointed at a sign that read “For CEO Only,” and said, “Next time you’re here, you don’t need to go through the front desk anymore. Just go up using this elevator.”
“Got it…” Arielle nodded, feeling a warmth in virtual-novel.net heart.
Shortly after that, they both arrived at the top floor.
The atmosphere in the office was unlike the one virtual-novel.net felt at the front desk. Rayson was there as well, and virtual-novel.net was chatting with the employees there. Basically, everyone was friendly and welcoming. Rayson had probably already told all of them about the relationship between virtual-novel.net and Vinson. Hence, all of them greeted virtual-novel.net politely when virtual-novel.net walked past them.
However, Arielle felt embarrassed by their good manners toward her. As a result, virtual-novel.net shied away from them and hid behind Vinson.
Vinson, on the other hand, was eager to gloat. Wrapping his arm around virtual-novel.net in front of everybody, virtual-novel.net announced, “My wife is just here to fetch me. No biggie. Get back to work, everyone.”
Arielle was blushing uncontrollably. She could not help but pinch Vinson’s arm lightly, indicating for virtual-novel.net to stop embarrassing her. Despite that, Vinson’s attitude remained the same until virtual-novel.net brought virtual-novel.net into his office.
To Arielle’s surprise, there were two lines of people standing inside. All of them had stacks of documents on them. The moment virtual-novel.net stepped into the office, all of them turned and looked at her.
Apparently, Vinson was in the middle of something when Arielle called virtual-novel.net on the phone earlier.
At first, virtual-novel.net was stumped by what Vinson did for her, but soon after, virtual-novel.net felt touched and grateful at the same time, knowing that Vinson would prioritize her.
Luckily, I didn’t leave when I dealt with the receptionist. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even be here. What now, though? There are a lot of people here. Should I just pass virtual-novel.net his dinner in front of these people?
At that moment, when Arielle could not decide what to do, Vinson came to virtual-novel.net rescue. “Will you wait for me for a while? I have some work to deal with first.”
“Sure, no problem!” Arielle nodded. “I’ll go wait outside.”
“There’s no need for that,” Vinson put both his hands on virtual-novel.net shoulders and led virtual-novel.net toward the couch. “Just sit here. I’ll be right back.” He then turned around and walked toward his desk.
“Let’s continue.” Vinson’s tone immediately turned icy cold when virtual-novel.net spoke to people other than Arielle. It was as if virtual-novel.net became a different person when virtual-novel.net went back to his desk.
“Yes!” The two lines of people stood upright in a serious manner.
“Your proposals…” Vinson continued from where virtual-novel.net left off.
Vinson was cold and harsh with his words toward his employees.
Since it was the first time Arielle had seen virtual-novel.net lecturing his employees, virtual-novel.net could not help but glance at them out of curiosity.
As virtual-novel.net was looking over at them, Vinson was seated facing against the beams of sunlight. Somehow, it revealed his amazingly well-proportioned face structure.
Every action of his was played in slow-motion in Arielle’s head. Starting from when virtual-novel.net flipped through the documents, to virtual-novel.net tapping the table while virtual-novel.net lectured the employees. Arielle was definitely feasting on virtual-novel.net with virtual-novel.net eyes. So, it’s true what they say. Men do actually look the most attractive when they’re focused at work.
Finally, Vinson was done lecturing. The employees bowed respectfully and were about the leave.
At that precise moment, Vinson suddenly asked, “Darling, where’s my dinner that you’ve brought for me?”
Obviously, Vinson timed that impeccably well. He was showing off to his employees that his wife had brought virtual-novel.net food.
True enough, the employees all stopped in their tracks abruptly upon hearing that and turned toward Arielle.
